[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 1371768, member: 8287"] CWA, I will tell you something I usually do not admit on a Mac forum for fear of being hated! :D I LIKE Launchpad. I don't use it all the time but do like it. It looks nice, Everything laid out well and uniform. It looks very nice as does the IOS interface. I do prefer the Dock most of the time, but still like Launchpad. There I said it. BUT.... Well then why don't you like Windows 8 Metro? It looks ugly with all the different size icons. I did not like it when it first came out on Windows Phone 7 either, but it's even worse on a desktop. I am a VERY open minded person but just do not like the way Metro looks, yet I like Launchpads interface. I loved OSX the first minute I got to try it. Instantly I loved it and wanted it as my main OS. Same with Amiga OS when it first came out. Same with OS2 later. Another slant on this is I do not like Android's OS for a smartphone or tablet all that well but would take that interface any day of the week to Windows Phone OS. It's not any Microsoft hatred either. I just do not like that interface and look! Of all portable devices I have seen, I still am impressed with IOS every time I see or use it. Another quick note, I am sort of like Vansmith in that I try all kinds of different Applications and OS's all the time. I am constantly checking out what is new. [/QUOTE]
